The Left Angle Cross of Education is named for Gate 11 and Gate 12, the same pair the Juxtaposition Cross of Articulation carries in reverse. Human Design reads Gate 11, from Hexagram 11, Peace, sits in the Ajna and is read as a mind full of ideas and concepts that want to be told; and Gate 12, from Hexagram 12, Standstill, sits in the Throat and is read as expression that arrives only in the right mood and the right moment. It falls in the Left Angle family, which practitioners read as fated in flavour, serving something beyond the individual rather than a self chosen plan.
Its design half is Gate 46 and Gate 25, both seated in the G, or Identity, centre. Gate 46 is read as a love of the body and a knack for arriving in the right place at the right time; it pairs with Gate 29 in the channel of Discovery. Gate 25 is read as an innocence that places universal love above particular attachment; it pairs with Gate 51 in the channel of Initiation.
So a chart carrying this cross holds an untold fullness of ideas against a caution about when to speak them, while beneath it an Identity centre pair of bodily love and impersonal innocence carries the design half. The numbers are inherited from the I Ching; reading them as one cross belongs to the modern reading, not the classical one.
